Documenting Polynomial Subtraction for Budget Variance

An operations manager is calculating a budget variance by subtracting the 'Actual Costs' polynomial (c24c+7)(c^2 - 4c + 7) from the 'Projected Budget' polynomial (7c25c+3)(7c^2 - 5c + 3). Based on the rules of polynomial subtraction provided in your training, identify which polynomial must be written first in the mathematical setup and state the final simplified polynomial result of this subtraction.
